Have not seen it. The captures I've seen point towards some kind of recreation of "Creature form the Black Lagoon", perhaps with some "romance" (in absense of a better word?) added to it?
I couldn't sit through it, turned it off soon as they she was about to break it out.
Good question. In regard to awards, I was referencing the soundtrack. An Oscar for the film? No. A Grammy/music award for a well-recorded/sequenced/time-oriented soundtrack? Yes.
And this is why you didn't like the movie - you didn't connect. They clearly refer to the creature as a "he" and he is obviously not an "it". He demonstrates intelligence, self-awareness, emotional pain. You didn't get all that? How about the beautiful way the movie was shot? How about the soundtrack? All of this contributed to the whole.
Nice job cutting out my clear explanation of why I didn't like it. People are allowed to differ in tastes btw.
I agree, your explanation was clear.
I agree, people have differing opinions on things.
I'm not clear on your last comment - are you unhappy with my view of why you didn't like the movie?
I think he's questioning how "you" can offer a view on his thoughts!
